The NclCS Bureau says that there may
he an unlocked for turn to the recent New
York decision on the Lamoille Valley
lease of tine Sdensburg. If the Ogdens-
burg road was operated by the Ogdens-

pany, the effect of the decision would be
about as has been stated, but it is oper
ated by the Consolidated railroad company
of Vermont under lease dated June Il,
1856, winch is TO continue during the cor
porate existence of the Ogdensburg road.
BY subdivisions fifth aud sixth of this
lease, the money arising from the opera
tion of the railroad by the lessee is to be
appropriated to the payment Of the inter
est on the income bonds before the La
moille Valley Extension railroad com
pany's bonds.
Now the question arises, must not the
Central Vermont break its lease of the

Important Customs Decision.

Mr.. Austin g. Fox recently applied to
the treasury department for a refund of
the duty levied upon certain wearing ap-
parel purchased by him in Canada and
brought into this country by way of
Houses Point, y. y. He claimed that
the articles We're entitled to free entry, as
wearing apparel in actual use. 1t appears
from the report of the collector at Houses
Point that Mr.. Fox went to Montreal on
August - and returned to the United
States September q, and that while III
Canada he purchased two suits OF winter
clothing, an ulster oNerclat, stCque
overcOat, two extra pairs of trousers and
one pair of heavy shoes; also, that at the
time be had a full supply OF wearing ap-
parel appropriate To the season, and that
the articles purchased by him were not
used in Cauadt but were intended. tor
winter wear. Assistant secretary May
uArd denied the application for refund
on the ground that the articles were not
in actual Use and were not suitable for
the season of the year, and, consequently
We're not exempt from duty under the
law.
